Boletus in general are very safe if you
know what you're doing. (IFF).-

That's just what he thought....



But what he ate wasn't a Boletus or anything like.

I meant, he thought he knew what he was doing. But obviously didn't and
made a hopelessly wrong call on this occasion.

Boletus have sponge

anyone who'd made any study of fungi could mistake a fungus with gills
for one with spores.

I'm reminded of "morning after" drivers.
